Hi,
So my DD wakes at 11pm & 4am every night. I noted how much she has during the day and it doesn't seem to matter. She still wakes up no matter how much food I get in her. Her shedule is:
7am wake - hopefully - sometimes a little earlier
8am solids (she won't take a bottle in the morning)
9:30am - bottle
nap
11:30am - solids
cat nap
2:00pm - bottle
nap
5:00pm - bottle
6:00pm - solids
7:30pm - bottle
bed
I don't use a pacifier (had/has medical issues that prevent me from using one - a lip deformity).
I tried not feeding her and just soothing her but she cried harder.
I tried letting her cry it out but when i went after 10 minutes to console her she was inconsoloable and vomited and then proclared it playtime.
I tried limiting the food but she still woke/ate.
I want to try watering down the food but not sure.
She can put her self to sleep. I put her down awake in her crib all the time. Although some times she falls asleep on her bottle - especially when her naps are only 45 min each during the day.
Can you let me know what I can do to get rid of the 4am feeding at least?
Desperately Tired,
Sharon
